[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 294332, member: 3388"] Trinity, You've expressed my feelings much, much better than I could have - For me, the thing that gets to me the most is the belief that the entire world must revolve around them. What you said is so true!!! "the lack of empathy and understanding, the self-centeredness, the narcissism. It can really drain you when you're sacrificing and sacrificing for someone, and from their perspective it's all about them them and them, and they just expect whatever herculean effort you've put in for them as their due and their right. It's enough to bring me to my knees." It is this total self-centeredness that drives me to the edge - Sometimes I have a difficult time just being in the same room as one of my difficult children because of their total disregard for anyone other than themselves. It's absolutely maddening!!! Just thinking about it, gets me angry... No matter how hard I try not to let it get to me, it does. SFR [/QUOTE]
